May the wind be at your back And the world sit at your feet May you waltz across Wyoming With a rose clutched in your teeth May the answers to your questions
Fall like raindrops right on cue May you set up shop in heaven Before the devil knows you´re due
Ohh, here´s to love, here´s to life All the fair and tender ladies And the plain dirt-farmer´s wife Yeah, here´s to you and here´s to me Some old mad dog mountain fly boy And the kid from Tennessee
May your nights be filled with laughter And your days with honest work May you wake up smelling roses When you´re facedown in the dirt If you had the sense to come in When the storm clouds start to grow Then you wouldn´t be my right hand
And the best friend that I know
Ohh, here´s to life and here´s to love When your heart beats like a lion And your shoes fit like a glove Yeah, here´s to you and here´s to me Some old mad dog mountain fly boy And the kid from Tennessee
May you always stay in touch With the things that keep you young When you´re staring at injustice May you never bite your tongue May the bear tracks in your future Find you downwind in a glade Where the grass as green as absinthe Comes in forty different shades
Ohh, here´s to love and here´s to life All the fair and tender ladies And the old fishmonger´s wife Yeah, here´s to you and here´s to me Some old mad dog mountain fly boy And the kid from Tennessee
Yeah, set ´em up, the drinks are free It´s the mad dog mountain fly boy And the kid from Tennessee
